Area 1: Lobby Cafe
Design Concept
The café lounge in the lobby runs a traditional ‘open-plan’ design that is ideal for welcoming guests. With soaring ceiling heights and expansive windows, the café invites guests to step away from the lobby and into the café. They are treated to an atmosphere that is elegant yet warm, with a touch of the early 20th century. Adopting a streamlined art deco theme consisting of straight lines and edges for the design aesthetics of the whole space. Furthermore, employing a cool color palette consisting of blues combined with white, gold and grey neutrals, with a few inserts of red, to create a soothing and calm space but still has an opulent touch to it. Making use of different material finishes and lighting to create a strong visual impact in the space. The design layout is composed of movement, with spacious seating that is not too sparse, as guests need to move throughout the café with ease while waiting for their rooms to be prepared, or simply to enjoy a beverage or two. Ultimately, the varied design details come together in a relatively small lobby café and creates an interesting and long-lasting impression.
